Render-blocking requests
1.5 s5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Improve image delivery
316 KiB1 image could be 316 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
website-files.com adds 190 ms
190 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 190 ms of main-thread work and 515 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (website-files.com, Google Tag Manager and cloudfront.net and others), adding 762 KiB and 343 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 87 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
70 KiBAbout 70 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2 KiB).

97/100Your mobile performance score is 97. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).
Main-thread work: 0.8 s
A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 364 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms

Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 2.2 s
2.2 sThe first text or image appears after 2.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 4.6 s
4.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
4 checks passed
Largest Contentful Paint: 2.2 s
2.2 sYour largest element renders in 2.2 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “FUNDING FOUNDERS GLOBALLY”.

2.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 2.2 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002
0.002The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 21 ms
21 msScripts block the page for only 21 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
1 image in older formats
1 image (179 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.22 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.22 g of CO₂e: 27.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 812 KiB in 22 requests
812 KiBYour homepage downloads 812 KiB in 22 requests on a phone: images 396 KiB (4), scripts 283 KiB (8) and fonts 68 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Links must have discernible text (2 elements)
Links must have discernible text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

Every image has alt text
All 92 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
28 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 32 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 28 passed and 4 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (18 characters)
Your title is only 18 characters: “305 Venture | Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at 305.ventures/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
Only 4 internal links
The homepage links to only 4 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
4 checks passed
Meta description: 90 characters
Your meta description is 90 characters: “305 Ventures is an early stage VC fund run by active founders investing in other founders.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Funding founders globally”.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.305.ventures/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.305.ventures/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (373 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without an H1
https://www.305.ventures/investment-network has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
https://www.305.ventures/investment-network has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
2 internal pages checked

Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
Only about 182 words
The homepage has only about 182 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “JOIN CO-INVEST NETWORK”.
2 calls to action
The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “join co-invest network” and “join Co-invest Network”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
8 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 8 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at 305.ventures, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
